Rachel is a veritable magician at matching her variety of "guest-proof," sure-footed, extraordinarily fit set of horses to visitors. Everyone in our group had mounts that perfectly suited not just riding ability but personality, with the result that every single one of us would have taken our horse home in a heartbeat.

Riding and horses fantastic as usual, Rachel is so good at knowing which horses you like to ride and everyone in the group was very happy.

The riding blew my expectations out of the water, it was amazing! What I really loved was that we had so many opportunities to canter and gallop. it really was amazing. The horses are fantastic and the guides are fabulous.

Met all expectations

I was matched to a horse of my riding ability. I am a nervous rider so I was very happy with Sarita

Had the pleasure of riding a lovely, well mannered horse, perfectly matched for what I asked for.

Rachel knows her horses very well and was excellent in allocating the right horse to the right person. She ensured that the rides were interesting and at the right speed for all riders.

I’ve been going to Los Alamos once or twice a year since the holiday was first available.
I’ve never been disappointed.

The horses were an absolute 10/10. loved them and the footing/terrain/ and the beach- so, so fun. Rachel was fantastic.

I had very high expectations, having been before, and they were fully met. The outstanding features are the high quality and well schooled horses, the lovely surroundings (with plenty of scope for canters and gallops) and the tasty and varied meals.

Andrew, Rhiannon and Rachel really made you feel relaxed and at home. Vinny was a star taking the photos. not forgetting Jim who picked us up at the airport. Rachel really put me at ease as I was very nervous that first day. My horse Hercules was a real star, looking after me so well. Not forgetting our guides Jose and Roberto [toy boy]. roll on new year when we will be back.

My three horses were excellent and I enjoyed riding them very much. They were well trained and responsive.

The riding was exceptional. To gallop on the ocean and through forests and down sand dunes was glorious.

Met and exceeded all my expectations! Everything was great - horses, tack, guide, accommodations, food, variety of riding terrain - and a special nod to hosts Andrew, Rhianna, and Rachael whose generous hospitality was unflagging in every aspect

It met my expectations. I have only been on one riding holiday before, so my comparison basis is little.

They are good matching horse and rider. Fun riding in the forest and on the beach. I enjoy the care-taking of the bridle after the ride, this helps keeping the leather smooth.

Beautiful and well behaved horses. Lots of good canters and gallops.

Mixture of fast and relaxing riding on well schooled, responsive and fit horses in beautiful surroundings.

The riding and horses at Los Alamos are superb leveryone was so up for the exhilarating rides .

Rachel did her usual brilliant job of matching horses and riders.

After 16 years I was treated like family.
No complaints at all..
Wonderful horses, good company, good food, totally fantastic.
Hate to be at an age 77 when my trips are coming to an end.

The riding definitely met my expectations. Rachel was great at matching people to the right horses and tried her best to listen to requests. I had 4 horses throughout the week and all of them were sure footed and forward going (but with brakes when needed!).
The firebreaker was such a highlight for me and it was good to see that the horses clearly enjoyed it too.
Jose and Roberto were great guides and I had such confidence in them at all times, so professional but also friendly. The whole team there were excellent at checking the weather/tides to decide when the best days were for beach rides and what times we should start in the mornings.

Lovely horses who are very well cared for and therefore interested in the people around them.

Rachel matched us well with beautiful, responsive and super fit horses. Riding through the woods and the early start meant we started off at the coolest part of the day. The stop for breakfast and coffee was welcome. We had 2 days riding on the beaches. The pace was good and the horses super responsive and fit.
The villa was lovely - with separate rooms and bathrooms - which enabled some welcome down time.
We used the pool - but also really enjoyed going to the beach in the afternoon and getting a taxi back. The mixture of riding, lunches out and the beach in the afternoon was perfect and we were well looked after by Rachel, Andrew and Rhianon. The riding guides - were also great.
We all want to go back and my friend Mel has already booked 2019.
Definitely will go again.

The riding was everything I hoped it would be. Rachel is an excellent horse-mistress, her horses are very fit, very well behaved and great characters. Jose and Roberto, the guides, are great characters and riders; the both looked after us and the horses very well. This holiday was a bit of a test for me - I had lost my confidence so have been having lessons and going hacking to try to get it back. This holiday proved that I am back! The photos Vinny took are amazing!

Riding is on sandy ground and very comfortable to ride on. They have really good horses, you can choose from really forward-going to the quieter horses. Rachel is really good to match rider and horse! They take really good care of both horses and their tack. Also very funny to see picture taken by Vinnie, in-action pictures!

As the least experienced rider in my group I felt very well supported, encouraged and safe

As always, the horses were outstanding.

Fantastic varied riding on quality horses.

Rachel knew exactly who to put us on and matched us all perfectly - I was absolutely amazed but that clearly reflects how experienced she is and how well she knows her horses. Safety clearly comes first but it is clear she wanted everyone to have the most enjoyable experience possible - whether it was a fast paced horse (which I like) or a steady horse for someone who had previously had an injury a long time ago.
It went beyond my expectations, I never could have dreamed of what we experienced - when galloping across the beach I felt like I was in a film. The riding terrain was varied, but all very beautiful and enjoyed very enjoyable riding. The forests were stunning, and I was so pleased with how many canters/ gallops we got on the beaches too- as well as the firebreak which was so much fun and the horses clearly enjoy it! The horses are incredibly well trained - we were all amazed. The tack was in good condition and we all would check it every day as well as the staff too.

Superb Andalusian horses, all expertly trained.

The horses were as brilliant as always.
